Custom Base for 3D Surfaces:

Video Description:

New methods have been added to Surfer to show the base on 3D surface layers! You can now select three different Z value settings to define to what Z value the base is shown. Select to show the base from the surface down to the minimum Z value in the map, to the minimum Z value in the grid, or to any Z value that you specify. This workflow is great for hydrologists trying to visualize the water table for an area of geologic interest, or for any user trying to fully customize their 3d surface. 

 

Digitize in the 3D View: 

Video Description:

You can now perform digitization of data in the 3D view! 3D digitization collects XY and Z coordinates. You can use this new feature in a variety of functions, such as to obtain the XYZ coordinates of specific spot locations on a surface or points on subsurface drillhole paths.

This new feature works well with our new drillhole map. For example, when viewed in 3D, you can digitize specific locations at depth on each drillhole (e.g. the top of a unit or stratigraphic layer, determined by your displayed drillhole data). You can then go back to the 2D plot view, grid the digitized XYZ data, and add a contour layer from grid file to the existing drillhole map. The new surface will also be displayed in the 3D view with the drillhole paths!

 

Custom Color and Scale Frames: 


Video Description:

We have added two important enhancements to the visual appeal and aesthetics of your maps! You can now add and customize a frame around color scale bars and map scale bars. You can set the margin between the frame and text in the scale bars and you can define its fill and line properties. This is very useful when overlaying the color or map scale bar on top of a filled map, such as an aerial photograph.
